Monday, August 29th (Chemical Reactions Test Review)

To Dos:

  1. Go over rules of Baseball Review Game
  • Mr. Farrell "Pitcher" (Question asker) and the "Umpire" (Final Ruling)
  • Student Teams: Boys versus Girls
  • We will play until we get through the Study Guide
  • Girls will "bat" first (answer questions first)
  • Batting order will be alphabetical for both Boys and Girls
  • "Batters" get 5 seconds to answer the question correctly INDIVIDUALLY
  • Each team gets 3 out per inning
  • If the batting team gets the question wrong the next "batter" for the other team can answer correctly for a "double play"
  • If the batting team already has two outs and a double play is not required, the same question will be asked to the other team as the lead-off question...
  • Each question answered correctly counts as a base hit...
  • IMPORTANT: If someone yells out of turn, gets out of their seat, or is overly disruptive that will count as one out against his/her team
  • IMPORTANT: If someone is repeatedly disruptive they will be ejected from the game and asked to sit in Miss Lotspeich's room for the remainder of class...
  • IMPORTANT: If we cannot handle the game we will stop and you will be required to fill out the Study Guide quietly...

PLAY BALL!!
